Established in 2019 as ‘Rock Your Wedding’ by our Founder, Liesel Papke, our team quickly became one of the most desired planning studios in the UAE. We have made our mark within the industry due to our artistic approach to aesthetics, pouring new life and passion into wedding and event design. Since our launch, we have organically extended our services and have officially rebranded as Rock Your Event, bringing you an exhilarating range of services for individuals who seek the extraordinary.
Redefining the world of planning…
who we are
We pride ourselves on promising our clientele the upmost discretion, with an exceptional service and a flawless planning process. Our carefully curated team of expert wedding designers will deliver an immersive wedding experience that effortlessly complements the narrative of your love story, where the beauty of your occasion does not compromise on intimacy.
the rye ethos
A devoted team who cares about your wedding day, just as much as you do…
The rumours are true – our team at Rock Your Event promise an unwavering commitment to your wedding day. We deeply understand and appreciate the momentous significance of your celebration. To us, it is a huge honour to join you on that journey and deliver an occasion that exceeds every expectation you may have.
Your love story is everything to us. The millions of little moments that have led you to this very day, the reasons why you’re getting married and the adoration that you have for one another – everything that is yours, effortlessly becomes ours.
We’re not planners because it’s just a profession. We’re planners because we value the meaning behind marriage and truly believe that you deserve the day of your dreams to celebrate this. At Rock Your Event, we have the opportunity to create a life-altering event that you and the people you love the most can share with you. A wedding is so much more than just a day, or a series of checklists and a sequence of timelines. It’s about curating an experience from the very moment you enquire until the very last guest has left the dancefloor. Because when it’s over and the sun has set, you’ll still have the memories to savour for years to come.
When you work with Rock Your Event, we promise the professionalism of planning experts, combined with the support, trust and integrity of someone who feels like a family member. We pour heart, soul and fire into every wedding we are a part of, which is why we’ve spent years refining our approach, methods and creativity to deliver something spectacular – every, single, time.
Floor plans, place settings, guest lists – no corners are cut, nothing is overlooked.
We deliver 100% on all the details – no matter how big or small they may be.
We’re the people you didn’t know you needed, until now.
So, if you want a wedding experience that encompasses your personalities, your love story and everything in between, now is your chance.
Let’s begin the adventure together.
Having founded Rock Your Event over four years ago, Liesel is the heart, soul and creative behind the brand. It is her vivaciousness and vibrancy that shines through, making Liesel one of the UAE’s most desirable wedding planners. Her head for organisation and eye for style doesn’t stop outside of her business – in fact, it’s a rarity to ever find Liesel sat still.
When she’s not in the depths of design, spreadsheets and suppliers, Liesel often scouts out a new creative project, adventuring through the UAE or chilling in the garden listening to tunes in the sunshine. Plus, she’s always awake at 5am to sweat it out at the gym – balanced out with a glass of bubbles later on in the day!
